Description

Totally Booked: LIVE! In this special episode of the podcast (in-person at the Whitby Hotel with a live audience!), Zibby interviews two-time Oprah’s Book Club pick and New York Times bestselling author Jane Hamilton about her first novel in nearly a decade, THE PHOEBE VARIATIONS (which is published by Zibby Publishing!). Jane shares the inspiration behind Phoebe’s story, an exploration of girlhood, friendship, identity, and found family set in 1970s Oak Park. She and Zibby also discuss motherhood, regret, creative persistence, and what it means to hold a book close to one's heart.
